S. Alban the Martyr, Brooke Street, London EC1

S. Alban the Martyr, Holborn was built by the architect William Butterfield in 1863. In April 1941 it was largely destroyed by firebombs. After the war Adrian Gilbert Scott designed the present building but incorporated several features of the old building that had survived the fire including the saddleback tower. The new church was consecrated in 1961. The most prominent internal feature is the mural on the east wall by the painter Hans Feibusch.
